Restaurants that are Currently Open on Sanibel Island
The Sanibel Island Causeway is now open to all people. It is good to note that if you do not live on Sanibel Island most of the activities on Sanibel Island are currently unavailable as there is still a large portion of rebuilding to take place. One of the most important things to note if you plan on visiting Sanibel Island now that the Causeway is open to everyone is that the beaches are still closed.
However, there are many Sanibel Island businesses that have re-opened since the storm hit in September. The businesses of Sanibel Island could really use the help of both locals that live on Sanibel Island and those who would like to visit with their support by enjoying a meal at one of these local restaurants that are newly re-open.
